Railroads in Southern California.

The visit of Charles Croker to Los An
geles convinced that gentleman, says the
San Francisco Call, that the Southern Pa
citic Company had employed much too
conservative policy with regard to railroad
building there. He was particularly
struck by the splendid traffic which the
California Central Railroad enjoyed from
Los Angeles all the way to San Bernardino,
and he determined that the Santa Fe peo-
pie should not have all the traffic of that
fertile foothill country to themselves.
A corps of surveyors have recently been
put in the field and Messrs. H. II. Boyce,
w. S. Moore and w. N. Monroe have been
authorized by Mr.. Crocker to obtain right
of way from the town of Monrovia through
the center of the AZusa valley to San
Dimas. A line from San Dimas, which is
at the head of the Azusa valley, has been
surveyed to Redlands, and the head of the
San Bernardino valley. The new line, so
far as the surveys indicate, will run from
Ramona station on the Los Angeles
division to Raymond Hotel, thence through
the center of Pasadena, through Fair Oaks,
Huntington, Lamanda Park, Sierra Madre
Arcadia and Monrovia to Duarte. From
this point the road will cross the San
Gabriel two miles below the Santa Fe
bridge, thence running due east will strike
Gladstone in the Azusa, and thence on to
San Dimas. From the latter point to Red
lands right of way has been secured. This,
however, is only one of the Southern Pa
ciic's Southern California schemes. 1t is
not probable that the company will DELAY
much longer the completion of their line TO
San Diego. while there is also possibility
that they will occupy the SINH Pass and
San Fernando valley route with a corps of
surveyors at a very early date. Several
roads are also projected, radiating from
Cotton, by means OF which the Santa FEES
territory will be considerably encroached
on.

ANOTHER batch of Chinese female slaves
has arrived in San Francisco harbor. The
larger majority of them are guaranteed ,,
That is, they come with letters guaran-
teeing that though they have no return
certificates, they can prove prior residence.
And so they can, if the slave dealers are
permitted to introduce the witnesses they
have coached for the purpose We enter
tain the hope that the new cargo will be
returned along with that other, concerning
which such frauds have been proven. The
Grand Jury has indicted the bag who
brought that importation, and to our sur
prise, the indictment is for "slaving;:p
dealing in and importing slaves. This is
a decided step in advance, and for the fiji st
time gives the country an official statement
that the slave trade still exists and that
its bsrracoons are at San Francisco. The
people will await the trial to follow with
much anxiety. Should it fail and the
female SLAYER go free it will be as well to
throw down the bars and let the flood pour
in unrestricted, until such unutterable dis
gust seizes the Government as to make it
solieitous to put up barriers that cannot be
broken down.

lT many now be taken for granted that
Sacramento is TO celebrate the completion
of the California and Oregon Railroad.
Arrangements have so far progressed that
this is assured. All the people should
give aid to the scheme As the terminus
OF the road, Sacramento has the greatest
possible interest in the matter. As a trade
center, the city is related to the road as is
no other. There appears to be disposition
abroad to ignore the intention of Sacra-
mento to observe the event with fitting
ceremonial, but out of what motive it
springs, we are at a loss to even conjecture
Every city interested ought to make the
event one for special observance, and any
thought of Jealousy should be secuted.
San Francisco, Sacramento, Marysville and
all the cities and towns related to the road
can and ought TO celebrate, and that, too.
independently of each other, as well as in
some manner jointly. If several thousand
people of San Francisco come here at our
invitation to join with us, there will be
left some hundreds Of thousands of people
at home to hail the day joyfully. And if
we send a trainload or two to the point of
junction, we will have thousands remain
ing to voice Sacramento's enthusiasm at

THE news comes by telegraph that the
President is disinclined to indorse the
tyrannous procedure of the Pacific Rail
way Commission of Inquiry, and proposes
not to recognize its schemes of confscation.
The President cannot see, probably, wherein
the country would gain by any Gripping
of the transcontinental railroads He be-
lieyes, we are told, that an extension of
time should be given for the financial ad-
justment between the roads and the Fed
eral Government. In the meanwhile will
be brought forward the plan for tribunal
to hear aud report upon the equitable
claims of the roads. When these are
fully set forth the country will recognize,
as the more thoughtful already do, that
when the nation aided these roads the
thought of repayment with added interest
did not enter into the estimate as any con-
siderable factor, and that the Government
is really no loser if it foregoes its Gains
In truth, the Government has been the
greatest gamer, and in equity has no foot
ing for complaint against the companies.
The opening up of the country, the bring
ing of new sections into market, the sub
lection of an empire of territory to the reign
of civilization, the transportation of mails,
troops and supplies, the development of
the Pacific coastal these and many
other considerations forbid that the Fed
eral Government shall assume the attitude
ofantagonism to these roads, or do aught to
obstruct their usefulness and the develop
ment of the systems related to them, which
are of such vital importance to the whole
| country.

1T will be remembered that the dis
tillers of the country have promised us
three several panics since 1870, in which
1t was said the whole nation would go to
smash, unless they were relived of a tax
laid by the Federal Government upon
their product. Congress never yielded to
their demands, though the Democracy
gave them all aid, and the panics never
came off. Three years ago was the date
of the last prophetic utterance forecasting
ruin unless the whisky tax was lifted. We
are now told that the only reason the
crash was averted, was the permission to
export out of bond and receive draw
back of duty. BY transportation they
gain age upon the liquor, and meet a
rising market 1t seems never to have oc-
CURED to the distillers that the people
have all along realized that the plant
about the tax was sham, for they know
that a mere shading on the price of
liquors, reimbursed for the tax. and dis
tributed Its burdens among the consumers.
We are now upon the eve of another
prophecy of panic, for the United States
Commissioner Of Internal Revenue has
recommended that the liquor still out on
its export travels be eornered on its return
and made amensble to such amendment Of
the laws as will secure return of the er-
port drawback. In effect, this would re-
verse the action Of the Treasury per
uniting the drawback, and to that extent
would not be keeping faith. 1t is unlikely
therefore, that the Congress about 10
assemble will amend the revised ststutes
as asked. The distillers have not STRENGTH
enough to secure a repeal of the tax. bu,
they viii be able to prevent the amend
ment recommended, for they can make a
fairly equitable claim. The CHICAGO
Herald calls attention to the fact that the
United States Attorney-Generai ruled. in
1888, that shipment ont OF the country
with intent to bring them back. was not |
such expectation as to entitle the shipper
of goods to the drawback. But in the face |
of this decision, the export with the
privilege was permitted, and the Govern
ment cannot pow 9Th very good grace
